This helmet has now come to me and Rob has asked me to finish off the thread for him.
My own helmet build was almost at the same stage but the finish wasn't as good as I had hoped so Rob kindly offered to swap with this one. My hubby Ian (nai-retep) completed the build for me by cutting out the ears with a dremel. We fitted the lens and applied a layer of polish to the whole thing, more as a protection layer for the paint. We applied the decals and padded the inside to fit my little noggin!
My costume has now cleared with this helmet and I have done my first troop in it. I chose this plastic version because it was so much lighter than the GRP version which Ian has. I found it really comfortable and would thoroughly recommend it for those who find the GRP a bit on the heavy side, particularly ladies!
Really pleased with the helmet and armour - thanks Rob!
